The Chancellor of the University of Education, Winneba (UEW), Neenyi Ghartey VII, has appealed to Ghanaians, regardless of their differences, to work towards promoting peace in Bawku and surrounding communities where ongoing conflict has affected lives, education, and livelihoods.
He also admonished the youth to resist becoming instruments of violence and instead become agents of unity and development, saying, "Let the guns go silent.
Let peace speak louder in Bawku.
We cannot educate a nation while part of it burns." Neenyi Ghartey VII, who is also the Paramount Chief of the Effutu Traditional Area in the Central Region, made the call at the climax of the second session of the 29th congregation of UEW at Winneba on Saturday.
